Note the man in the NRA cap:
"It's basically to embarrass America, which is what this administration's all about. Let's embarrass America...embarrass Western civilization, embarrass the white race."
More of those happy Republicans non-partisan patriots.
As long as these guys get a fair trial BEFORE the hangin'...that's all that matters. Geeeeee.
These people are just plain dumb. I mean, they are missing something in their head that tells them truth from fiction and right from wrong. $9 trillion deficit? Actually, dude, it's a debt, and it was $10 trillion before Obama even got elected. Next, if that woman is concerned that it's going to cost $300 million to try these guys, what the hell does she think it costs to run Guantanamo Bay!?
For Whatever It's Worth:
"The decision to try some of the accused terrorists in civilian court rather than before military tribunals has been criticized by Republicans who argue that it gives terrorists a worldwide stage for their views."
TerrorISM needs a worldwide stage if it doesn't already have one. The entire world has to see what all the fuss is about and if it doesn't stand up under scrutiny, well, that's a good thing, right?
I wonder if Bush had followed established rule of law rather than making it up as he saw fit any of this would even be necessary.
I think a good historical comparison could be made against the Nuremberg trials both pro and con.
Multiculturalism embarrasses America? Guess I'd better send that memo back in time to my ancestors, who came from at least 15 countries and at least 4 continents that I can identify.
I've never seen so many people so delighted to be angry (well, not since the latest zombie flick I saw), and the video led me to ask a few questions:
1) does wearing a beret confer upon its wearing automatic legitimacy?
2) to Edith Lutnick, does reciting all possible familial relations in a chant make your speech more empassioned and inspiring?
3) do the people using bullhorns get to say whatever they want, or do they have to register their bullhorns when they get to the protest and reserve a time slot?
4) should I really pay attention to a guy whose sign is misspelled (trampeling) AND is wearing a beer cap, or can I just choose one of them as a reason not to listen?
5) I'm pretty sure the first lady speaking (in the red coat) in the video is not from the U.S. If so, I hope she's a naturalized citizen. If we follow the last commenter who said, "our courts are for our citizens only," and red coat lady isn't naturalized, should we send her to Guantanamo the next time she runs a red light? No more Municipal Court for you, lady!
6) finally, how many dogs were injured by the off-key rendering of "God Bless America"?
Geez. I got 1:15 into it and had to turn it off.
Artemus, I'm pretty sure the KKK sings "God Bless America" at their Klan gatherings.
There are no words that equal the depth of my anger and disgust at these jackasses.
".....embarrass the white race..."
That's their problem in a nutshell. Though they won't admit it; they're just a bunch of racist idiots.
Meanwhile, I'll applaud what my big brother just said above. He nailed it.
Teabaggers appear to be protesting the rule of law and an America consistent with what we say are our values. And then they have the goddamn nerve to be singing "God Bless America". What a bunch of ignorant assholes.
